What the petition asks
There is enough technology now to make the BBC subscription channels. The price of a TV licence is ridicules and is certainly NOT worth the money. It's basically a tax and should be scrapped.
The BBC also play far too many repeats thinking we enjoy the same old rubbish over and over again and their fate should be put to the people to decide.
